[Elecraft] K2 Modifications

[Stephen W. Kercel]

Scott:

The troubles are few and far between. With over 5000 K2s out there, 
mostly home built, occasionally things pop up. Dealing with those 
rare occasions is one purpose of this list. Enjoy your K2. It is not 
possible to find a better rig for the money.
